Good Finds- Hotels in Tucson, Arizona

Tucson is the largest city in southern Arizona and the second largest in the state, next to Phoenix. The name Tucson stems from the Spanish word Cuk Son, which means Black Base. This refers to the west site of the city, which is notably littered with volcanic mountains. The city itself is a panoramic tableau of rolling hills, cactus forests, and mountains that seem as boundless and eternal as the sky.

In history, Tucson is a melting pot of the cultures of two countries: the United States and Mexico. It has a long history of settlement, first by the native Americans, then by the Spanish explorers, and finally, by frontier pioneers. Clearly, Tucson combines just the right mix of history with natural beauty, and it is precisely this mixture that attracts visitors in hordes.

If you're planning to visit the city, you need not worry. There are many hotels in Tucson, Arizona and these run the gamut from affordable to heartbreakingly expensive. If you're on a tight budget, the best accommodation for you would be an accredited member of the Arizona Association of Bed and Breakfast Inns. One of the little hotels in Tucson, Arizona that you could try is the Elysian Grove Market, an historic Tucson Barrio Bed and Breakfast. It is a quaint little inn that is furnished with folk art and antiques from both the southwest and Mexico. It boasts of a garden teeming with cactus, mesquites, fountains, and hummingbirds.

If this is not your cup of tea, however, you could take your pick from the bigger hotels in Tucson, Arizona. One example is the Lowes Ventana Canyon Resot. Nestled within the foothills of the Catalina Mountains, the Lowes has 398 guestrooms and each one has its own balcony that showcases the breathtaking view of the desert, he Catalina Mountains, or rows upon rows of Tucson buildings.

Another good pick from among the hotels in Tucson, Arizona is the Arizona Inn. This four-star retreat was built in the 1930s and boasts not only of thoroughly modern amenities and wonderful landscapes, but also of a daily ice-cream social which takes place by its 60-feet outdoor pool, from June to September.

My final pick would be a most welcome place for avid golf players. Among the countless hotels in Tucson, Arizona is one that rests on a 650-acre championship golf course. The Omni Tucson National Resort was named one of the 75 Best Golf Resorts in North America by the Golf Digest. It has 167 large guestrooms, all of them located in different buildings throughout the resort. All rooms have large walk-in closets, separate vanity areas, and its own fully-furnished patio with the guest's choice of mountain or golf course view. As part of its package, the Omni offers free use of its tennis club, along with free lessons, for its guests.
